Description

In this episode of the podcast, you’ll hear me talk to a handful of ePatients about sharing their own stories and the delicate balance of telling the stories of others. These conversations touched on themes of identity, privacy, patient experience, using technology to find connection, and ways in which we’re trying to compensate for the many deficits that exist in our healthcare system through that connection and storytelling. This episode was created for the Stanford Medicine X ePatient Storyteller Track. All clips were recorded at the 2016 MedX conference at Stanford University School of Medicine in September 2016.
